Oudin wins again accounting for Petrova easily after her usual first set hiccup. One might think she happily concedes the first set to make her comeback more enthralling but maybe she’s just a cute kid who’s not that sure how to win. She does Believe though...

Bondarenko the Lesser double bagelled the unfortunate Dulko and will play Wickmayer – yep Wickmayer or K-Bond will be in a Major semi-final! Presumably the Woz will beat either of them but that assumes she gets past wonder-girl Oudin which neither Dementieva or Sharapova could do. Hard not to think that Clijsters or Serena would easily account for any of this mob in the top half. We still believe in Flavia though...

How does anyone get double bagelled in the fourth round of a Major?

Fed cruised past Robredo barely pausing to wave, Davydenko had enough against Soderling, the Djoker got the Worm and Verdasco had a metronomic four set win against Isner. Is Isner’s moment already over or is Fernando simply the better passing player then Roddick? Well, only if he tops Djokovic in the next round. Fed’s still the man for me.
